He wears North Face because it get lonely and cold being at the top

did i actually just listen to a guy talk about why he wears tech clothes for 10 minutes straight?

this video was pretty good (as a broke person)

I went through a similar transition, but the reason I started buying all of the technical clothing in the first place was because I got really into hiking. Once I got a few pieces, I quickly realized that it's just far superior to all of the junk I had been wearing, for most of the reasons you describe. That revelation was totally unexpected.

As a middle-class-ionaire, I prefer Columbia

[pandaballsocial]

The expensive clothes somehow made you look homeless.

God your trolling and your dry sarcastic humor is so entertaining to me

[libertycoffeehouse]

I totally agree with you. People who wear hiking clothes are concerned with efficiency, durability but the clothes can be worn for a long time as it never goes out of style. It never looks snobby but it projects and image of success tempered with moderation. I would say poorer people can save money with this type of clothing because it lasts longer. It is like an all terrain vehicle. It looks right in any setting and is functional in any setting. It is also minimalistic. Even millionaires who are independent don't like to waste their money. Some of the Columbia camp shirts believe it or not look good with the right color tie and makes you look some sort trend setter. I hate trendy clothes. It is for the dumb down masses who are duped into mass consumerism. All their clothes have to be thrown and soon as the trend is over.

Regular influencer: wear something they want you to buy
Techlead: wear an unique award from one of his successful projects no one can buy

I stopped caring about fashion long ago. I wear what I wear for a purpose. I don't buy clothes for any reason other than a personal need.

When I became a backpacker many years ago, I changed all my clothings to patagonia, it was just so well made. layering is the way to go to keep yourself warm in all terrains. I no longer backpacking but still wear outdoor clothes, they are the most comfy and last like forever.

I’ve always loved North Face as a brand mainly because I do a lot of outdoor activities, running, mountain hiking, travelling etc. What I always loved about TNF is it reminded me of things I love and obviously because it’s functional for what I use it for. I’ve noticed though that in some products their quality is less than it used to be and they’re too focused on profit. At the end of the day I buy the best quality I can afford for the price and will never be religiously loyal to any brand. It all depends on value for money. A few weeks ago I bought a Patagonia Goretex Pro jacket because it was hands down the best value for money, and nothing from TNF seemed to be Goretex pro…at least not for that price. It was on sale and in australia I paid $531 for it. I’ve never spent that much on a jacket before but as I do outdoor activities in bad weather for me it’s a good investment. Absolutely love it and the quality is first class. I’ve always worn what I wanted because it’s what I like, I don’t care if anyone else does. I bought a $100 shirt because I loved it for myself, I don’t care if anyone else does. It may be the one and only time I spend that much on a shirt so if I love it it’s worth it. Basically it doesn’t matter if you’re wearing Gucci or K Mart so long as you’re happy. It should never about impressing anyone else.

I mean this in the nicest way possible, you are literally the last person I would take fashion advice from lmao

This is very insightful. I’ve always loved these brands and have a lot of northface, Patagonia, and marmot gear. Here in Oregon, these brands are very popular, it’s almost the main style for people who live in the Pacific Northwest. We’re all on the same page and now it makes sense
